I've read quite a few of the Discworld books, and I think my favourite character is either Death or Vimes. They both have a great series of books which I've really enjoyed. I'm not mad on the witches or Rincewind (though I love the Unseen University). Anyone see The Hogfather over Christmas? It was pretty great.

I love Discworld. My favorite books are in the Night Watch series, love Vimes, Angua, Fred, Carrot, Nobby, Death, Death of Rats...definitely loved Guards! Guards!, Men At Arms, and Jingo the most, as well as Mort. I should pick up a few more of the books and start reading them again. I also was a big fan of The Wee Free Men.

What do you guys think in general of the Tiffany Aching books? What makes them "juvenile," exactly? I can't tell that they're different except they have a teenaged protagonist and are set away from most of the other events of the Discworld.

I liked these books a lot. They're juvenile only in the sense that the main character is a child. I think I read somewhere that Sam Raimi is making the first book into a movie.
